Introduction

Udyr is a very strong jungler. He is not only tanky, but deals high damage without tanky items. He has a stun, innate, a large shield, and high damage. He is also a strong duelist, and counter jungle. Although ganking can be hard, Udyr brings alot to the table. He is also rarely banned.

Pros / Cons

ProsCan be a strong gankerHas a stunHas innate sustainHas a shieldHas high damage without many damage items.Hard to counter gankConsCan be kited VERY easily.Not very tanky early.Wards completely counter his ganks.

Summoner Spells

Recommended Ghost I would recommend ghost because Udyr has insane movement speed with his passive and beat stance. It will allow you to dive carries, and escape in sticky situations. Smite An essential while jungling, no questions asked.Viable Flash I prefer ghost over this, but its still viable.

Runes

Greater Quintessence of Movement Speed3

Greater Mark of Attack Speed9

Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist9

Greater Seal of Armor9

I recommend movespeed quints because you are playing Phoenix Udyr, you will not need anything else. It also helps you gank and escape alot better.
greater mark of attackspeed These runes are very good on Udyr because you are able to get more autos off, proc Phoenix 3rd hit faster, and have more DPS. Pretty much essential in the jungle. It helps you gank, clear, and leaves you at higher health. This really just helps you in the late game. Often you shouldnt be ganking with low hp, so there are little odds of enemies turning on you. Also, you will not need much MR early game.

I would highly recommend the utillity tree because it allows you to get more sustain, and more movement speed (which is important) to get snowballed. The 9 points in defense give you an extra bit of HP, and helps you clear faster (bladed armor)
too much work to go in depth with all the masteries (maybe next time) :P
